I can sympathize; have about the same number of mail actions as you (with one action having more than 200 criteria--mostly to direct spam to my deleted mail folder) Since it doesn't look like the list mom is going to take any action, perhaps you should consider subscribing on digest mode, ensuring all Emailer-related mail is not misfiled.
